Got2BSafe, Got 2 B Safe

Lesson Plan: The lesson will begin with the aforementioned KWL chart, and then will transition to the introduction of the four points. We will then participate in various role-playing situations, and then share what we learned. The students will then work with another class, and make some new friends. The students will find someone who lives nearby, and they will exchange pertinent information (address, phone number, etc.) We will then work on the student activity sheets and pass out the parent letters to send home with the students. We will then take the safety test and then discuss how to make the right choices in real life. A local police officer will come and give a presentation on safety.
